DescriptionCVE.org

dr_libs version 0.13.3 and earlier contain an uncontrolled memory allocation vulnerability in drflac__read_and_decode_metadata() that allows attackers to trigger excessive memory allocation by supplying crafted PICTURE metadata blocks. Attackers can exploit attacker-controlled mimeLength and descriptionLength fields to cause denial of service through memory exhaustion when processing FLAC streams with metadata callbacks.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in dr_libs 0.13.3 and earlier enables local attackers with user privileges to exhaust system memory by supplying malicious PICTURE metadata blocks with oversized length fields in FLAC streams. The vulnerability resides in improper bounds checking during metadata parsing, allowing uncontrolled memory allocation that crashes applications processing affected audio files. No patch is currently available.

Technical ContextAI

A denial of service vulnerability allows an attacker to disrupt the normal functioning of a system, making it unavailable to legitimate users.

RemediationAI

Implement rate limiting and input validation. Use timeout mechanisms for resource-intensive operations. Deploy DDoS protection where applicable.
